If you’ve visited this website because you’re intrigued about the idea of making money at home taking online surveys, but feel a little skeptical, then you’re in the right place.

Just in the United States, companies spend over 250 Billion dollars a year trying to convince consumers to buy their products and services. That’s a lot of money … And while the majority of it is spent on advertising, a portion is devoted to research. You see, understanding how people think and shop, why they buy certain products, etc. ultimately helps companies improve their products and services and make THEM more money. Knowing this, companies are willing to pay people up to $150 an hour for their opinions. Eventually, they know they will come out ahead and generate more profits for themselves.

Getting Started

The most difficult part about making money with paid surveys is finding and sorting through all the market research programs out there. And some of them are “scams” – they don’t pay as promised, they bombard you with more advertising, their telemarketers call you during dinner, etc. It would take you months to find, evaluate, and keep track of all the good opportunities. These websites have done the research for you and are constantly updating their databases of companies in need of people to take online surveys. This will save you a tremendous amount of time, hassle, and “trial and error” versus trying to do it all yourself. In addition, these members-only websites often provide tips, tricks, and strategies that will help you to make more money, as quickly and as easily as possible.

Obviously not everyone can take all the surveys. If you are father who works all day you would not quality for a survey about stay at home moms or daily child care. A women would not quality for a survey about men’s purchasing habits or say views about a men’s magazine. Some surveys are very general, anyone can take them (for example, what type of pain medication do you take when you get a headache). Some surveys will be specific and need someone from the targeted sex, age, work, or lifestyle.

Once you sign-up you can get started immediately. This is not to say you will be offered surveys or make money within an hour after joining. Some people start receiving surveys within a few of hours, but the average wait is usually at least a few days. It really depends on your “profile”, and which companies you register with. Keep in mind that many market research companies only send out 1-2 surveys a month. With these it will take at least a few weeks before you are entered into their system and start receiving surveys from them, depending on when you register. It’s crucial to register with as many as you can – you will NOT make a lot of money from any one company. You will be introduced you to 100s of companies, and the more you register with the more surveys you can take. It’s that simple. Once you get going you can do surveys every day.

Therefore it’s advisable to learn the basics first before getting involved in trading. Below are some important Options Trading Tips to consider before you think of jumping onto the roller coaster ride called options.

Common Mistake: One of the most common mistake that beginners make is the fact that if they believe that the market is bearish and is going to fall they may choose to sell call options, where as they can buy put options instead. Put options are opposite of Call options, in call option if a trader gets a right to buy the underlying asset then in put option a trader gets a right to sell the underlying asset.

Hedging: Traders can use options to hedge the risks their portfolio might have. For example: if a trader has a bullish portfolio but he is worried that if the markets move downward he might be losing money, in that case he can hedge his downward risk by purchasing put options. On the contrary if a trader has a bearish portfolio and he is worried about the market moving upwards then he can hedge his risk by purchasing call options.

Strategy: If profit is what trader is looking at out of his options trading then he may consider some of the popular options trading strategies like Straddle and Option Spreads. If these strategies are employed correctly then trades can have a limited amount of losses but at the same time amount of profits can be unlimited.

Leverage: With option one needs to invest not more than 10% of the money required for investing in same quantity of underlying asset. So by investing in options a trader can manage the same quantity of asset and can leverage upon the unused money.

Options Paper Trading: If you are a beginner or you believe you have a money making strategy, in any case it’s better to test your instincts before you choose to invest your own money into options trading. With options paper trading or online simulations a trader can test his strategy without investing his/her own money.

These are some of the tips that can guide you before you start investing in options or while you are trading in options.
